you could try a complaint to head / request for more info as to how it was used
this appears to be the latest version https://www.genderbread.org/resource/genderbread-person-v3-3
In this version it treats biological sex as if it were identity and female and male were identity words which should be regarded as a sliding spectrum of how much femaleness a person has.
I rather doubt the Science department would approve
In version 1 it was better
so I'd probably start out by talking to your child and finding out what version was used and what they were told and what they think about that.

version 1 is less homophobic and recognises that sexual attraction is for most people strongly linked with the sex of the people they are or are not attracted to.
The use of Intersex in the middle of male and female is inappropriate people with DSD are still either male or female.

Tell the school it is intersexphobic and share this with them instead https://dsdfamilies.org/application/files/9116/3519/2768/July_2021_schools.pdf
